That Was Then, This Is Now

Then, the skies were blue and white And the sun's ray brought pure light Now the skies are dark and gray And black shadows cap the day Then, the mountains were all green There were waters in between Now, the mountains are all brown Though, the high gods hold their crown Then, the oceans were all blue And the rivers' shine were true Now, the oceans are all dark And the rivers got no spark Then, the air we breath was pure Sunlight bathing were all sure Now, we hardly breath in smoke And the ozone's ply was broke
